Rj | 6 years ago10 ReplyNah a Stock classic 350 isn't good for long rides as it has a low height handlebar which after 100 KM ride results in your backpain wrist pain so use bullet stock handle which is high lift handlebar and is easily available in Royal Enfield authorised parts center. Do not do any modifications to seat because seat is good and if you want to try Air cushion seat you can try but it doesn't have much effect but only reduce your Hip and thigh pain.
Sunil | 5 years ago7 ReplyIf talking about your height i don't think so you will cause any problem while riding classic 350 ..I personally own classic 350 and once gone for a long ride of around 300 kms ..frankly speaking the back seat of classic is not comfortable at all ..the person sitting on backseat will surely suffer difficulty if going for a long ride …no problems with the front seat as it provides you quite wide area …but if you wish to buy a re just for long rides then i personally prefer you to go for thunderbird 350/500 just because its comfortability level is much higher than classic 350/500
Mj | 5 years ago22 ReplyAbsolutely! Anyhow you have to take breaks in period between 150 / 170 km max for hydration and physical relaxation. I did 500 km on single day in 11 hours with multiple refreshment breaks and all. Average speed of 80 kmph. It felt pretty good, comfortable and confident
Sanjay | 4 years ago0 ReplyJust get rid of the MRF tyres with something else, they start slipping off on long ride as they heat up. I ride regularly and ended up getting Michelin Sirach for them and they are extremely useful for long rides, no backaches on a 250+ kms stretch and mileage is approx 40+ kmpl !
Ganesh | 5 years ago3 ReplyYes. If you are person who like to go with maximum speed of 90Km/h on highways enjoying the beautiful scenery around, then its suitable for you to go for a long ride. Its common to feel the lack of high speed (>100kmph) when you are driving long.
Jasmeet | 5 years ago3 ReplyYes absolutely it is suitable for long rides, you need to start with short rides or breakfast rides first so that you get used to the bike. One of the main features of the bike is suitability and reliability. Don't try to push bike above 100kmph as it starts to rumble and shake a bit. Be patient with your Royal Enfield it will surely take you places.
Divanshu | 6 years ago1 ReplyIf you specifically looking for the long ride I would suggest you to go for Thunderbird. Otherwise classic is good for long ride if you are a rider for the Pillion it's curse.
Prakash | 5 years ago2 ReplyDo little modifications, I mean legal modifications in handle bar and seat. Any bike you ride for long distance will cause you little stress in body. have regular intervals/ Tea breaks and it will be fine. After all you are riding a machine which is heavier (192 Kgs) than others.
Krishan | 6 years ago3 ReplyIf you think for long riding then go for Thunderbird, Himalayan or Interceptor. Classic 350 create discomfort at the speed of more than 90km/hrs and continue vibration due to spring on seat. I had classic, Thunderbird and Interceptor but riding comfort only you can better experience on Thunderbird.
Rohit | 6 years ago3 ReplyOfcourse ive crossed like 6 states (tamilnadu ,karnataka,andrapradhesh ,Maharashtra ,gujarat,rajasthan in onestrech other than the problems in indian roads (uneducated traffic) no problem was there the bike was super d**n performer
Sagar | 6 years ago2 ReplyObviously, you just need to get seat changed for long rides, i have already travelled to himachal from delhi on Classic 350, no problems
Vamsi | 6 years ago0 ReplyObviously. But as I own both classic 350 and avenger 220, I feel avenger is a lot better for long rides and one more issue is breakdown.
Mahendra | 6 years ago3 ReplyIts comfortable for long distances , but will feel uncomfortable after a single stretch of more than 100 kms , needs break , vibration level is a major set back at high speeds , Millage 38+ ( 70-80 Kmph ) above 80 it sucks .
Sujit | 6 years ago3 ReplyYes, it's a great bike for long rides, make sure you check your tyres, brakes, oil, l**e your chain, etc before you go... happy riding
Tushar | 7 years ago4 ReplyYes. You can take it any distance you wish to go. It won’t be heating or retiring up or making you tired riding it. Also, the bike it steady and balanced to offer your consistent and controlled ride all the way.
AmanpreetSingh | 6 years ago1 ReplyYes but with minor change like handle height increase and with some back rest feature add actualy its very powerfull engine for long rides always
